About me

I work with individuals with anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, and all types of relationship issues (romantic, family, peer, and occupational). I believe that clients are experts in their own lives, and my role as a therapist is to provide a safe and nurturing environment for clients to explore and meet their goals. The therapeutic relationship between the client and therapist sets the foundation for authentic collaboration that allows for trust and meaningful work together.

My treatment methods

EMDR

I use EMDR to help clients process and integrate distressing memories, reducing their emotional impact. This evidence based approach allows clients to achieve significant improvements in their mental health and overall well being.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I use CBT to help clients identify and challenge negative thought patterns and behaviors, promoting healthier coping mechanisms. This structured, goal-oriented approach empowers clients to achieve lasting positive changes in their mental health.

Humanistic

I use Humanistic therapy to offer a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings freely. This approach helps you connect with your strengths and make choices that align with your true self.

I feel truly seen and safe with Leslie. She’s incredibly intelligent, solution-oriented, and at the same time warm, compassionate, and validating. I’m so thankful to have her as my therapist — she’s been a grounding and empowering presence in my life.
